    Trade gone bad here on the Marketplace

    Well I'm sick of waiting so here goes the deal. As some of you may know I put a 8" Superman up for trade here on the boards and csxernie contacted me and told me he would trade me a Type 2 Penguin for it he showed me a pic of the Penguin and I agreed to do the trade with him on the 22nd I sent the Superman out the next day with DC and he got it on the 25th. I waited for a few and tried to contact him to see if he had sent out the Penguin yet and I get no responce. Now here it is the 8th and nothing. Now I understand things happen but this guy lives one state over from me and a reply to a pm only takes a few seconds. So because of this I will not ever send at the same time on a trade again here period. I just got back into collecting loose Megos and don't have a lot of stuff to begin with now I get burned out of a Superman.

        He should have kept in contact with you even if he had a problem.

          Agreed ... unless his computer/connection is down, of course.

            Even if you came home and your house was totally gone -- you could still go to your local library and log on to the Museum and send massages for free.

              If my house was totally gone, then I think the Mego museum might be just a tad lower on my priority list. (little things like food & shelter might come first).

                Doomsday senerios aside, he needs to contact his trade partner. A freakin hurricane destroyed my house last year but I kept in touch.

                  yeah ... not cool for sure, I know I've been very slow at shipping but I always keep in touch to let the person know what's up.

                    Like I said up top. I do understand that things come up and I am cool with that but at least find a few seconds to let me know whats going on. I don't think that is to much to ask for when you get your end of the trade 2 days after the trade was made.

                      Agreed. Short of family emergencies, natural catastrophies or other MAJOR things that would lower the priority of anything toy collecting related, you DEFINITELY should have gotten a quick PM/email.

                      Hope this gets resolved for you (and soon!!)

                        I'm sick and tired of excuses from these losers.

                        Unless you died...you have the obligation to at least email back.
